5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
Let them praise the name of the Lord; for he commanded and they were created.
6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
And he established them for ever and to eternity: he gave a decree which none shall transgress.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
Praise the Lord from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
Fire, and hail, snow, and vapor; thou storm-wind that fulfillest his word;
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
Ye mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars;
10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
Ye beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and winged birds;
11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
Ye kings of the earth, and all nations; ye princes, and all judges of the earth;
12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
Young men and also virgins; old men, together with boys: —
13 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
Let them praise the name of the Lord; for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above earth and heaven.
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the Lord.
He also exalteth the horn of his people, a praise unto all his pious servants, [even] unto the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah.
